A twiglet is a short phrase. Or a word. Its aim is to “prompt” a flow. A thought. A memory. If something comes to mind, write. A polished piece isn’t the goal; creativity is. Leave a link, if you’d like your work read, but comments should not be expected. Twiglets are posted on Tuesdays.
I run with first thoughts… not sure why I thought of those swallows… maybe there was also an article in the paper?
Stopped by your place, but the door isn’t open.
Hope all is well… I’ve had to stall some blogs too because of ‘twits’. But it is such a pain to open new ones. At least I still have one option open… for now.
I’m not writing much but I do like to keep up with others as I can. Thank you for checking. Im doing well. Hubby just retired and I’m trying to get use to a new normal…. so far great.
Thanks, Misky. So far it has been great, We plan to travel some (aside from the grandparent traveling) and probably build a smaller house. But the finally getting to spend time together is wonderful.

Ah, really nice. Yes, I think we all tried to evoke a sense of saturation.

Peder’s been retired for 7-years, and I think these years are the absolute best so far. I wish you many happy years, D.

Tear a cloud like ripping
a goose down pillow,
and the honking
billows loose
a rapture
Jolt the sky
and Starling pepper
shakes from trees,
spiced tweets
in their beaks
Birdsong raining,
each drop an opera
of après moi le déluge,
the rising river
caws and effect

Lovely read.
